University of Lincoln climbs in UK top 10 for teaching and student experience

The University of Lincoln has risen to its highest ever position in the latest edition of The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide.

The university has risen 11 places to 51st out of 128 UK universities listed and is also ranked in the UK top 10 nationally in two categories: teaching quality and student experience.

The Times guide is used by many students and parents making choices about undergraduate courses for entry in the 2017/18 academic year.

Professor Mary Stuart, Vice Chancellor at the University of Lincoln, is delighted to be placed so highly in the rankings.

Lincoln’s rise in the latest edition comes days after the university was placed in the top 800 in the world for all universities in the prestigious THE World University Rankings 2016-17.

Professor Mary Stuart, Vice Chancellor at the University of Lincoln, said: “We are delighted that the University of Lincoln has been ranked so highly in the latest Times Good University Guide.

“This success reflects the very special student experience here at Lincoln, including the quality of teaching and the sense of academic community on campus.

“Our students tell us they value the variety of opportunities presented to them to engage in university life during and outside their studies, whether that is participating in real academic research or volunteering on local community projects with our excellent Students’ Union.”
